Obviously a staged picture. Would have been better if the guy sitting in the car would be wearing helmet though. Still a great shot that captures the excitement of a blown front motor car!

1962? She would have been either Miss Atlanta Raceway or Miss Pure Oil at this point.

Paul bought it off of Mike Kamm, but Mike didn't buy the car until 1988, so must be the owner before that in the picture.

Here's a shot of Mike picking up the dragster in 1988 with his cousin Greg Gessler (the Buick head porting guy).

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
